Feels like the culmination of the classic indie pop rock of the late 2010s/early 2020’s, with enough wild inventiveness to smash that pop aspect right back where it came from: 8/10
ALSO this album is 2023’s #1 aoty by user rating, and still hasn’t been touched by a single professional critic; the mark of a pure indie gem
AND INTO THE EYES OF A JACKAL I SAY KAAAAAAAA-BOOM!
Like a warm bowl of custard with raisins and walnuts and a few little cooked apple slices
